Luxury Yarn One-Skein Wonders

101 Small IndulgencesKnitters have spoken! Single-skein projects are all the rage because they're portable, fun, quick to finish, and the perfect answer to that stash of orphan yarns. Already, Judith Durant's One-Skein series has delighted knitters everywhere with fabulous single-skein patterns contributed by yarn shops and noted knitwear designers. Now, "Luxury Yarn One-Skein Wonders", the third book in this popular series, brings indulgence to the one-skein concept! The newest one-skein patterns are the most decadent yet, featuring the most sumptuous yarns on the market--from snuggle-worthy cashmere to the exquisite qiviut, and from the lustrous alpaca to the eco-friendly soy, corn, and bamboo yarns. Contributors include designers, yarn manufacturers, and well-known knitting and crocheting teachers. Like previous One-skein books, "Luxury Yarn One-Skein Winders" features two-color illustrations throughout, as well as a full-color photo gallery of projects. Patterns include baby items, personal accessories, toys, and garments--from an adorable baby sweater knit from merino and bamboo to beaded cashmere socks. Not only are these projects fun and fast, they offer knitters a great excuse to pick up several skeins (really now, no one can buy just one!) of to-die-for yarns. With "Luxury Yarn One-Skein Wonders" in hand, knitters who crave something special will create fabulous, heirloom-worthy projects without breaking the bank. Single-skein projects are a knitter's dream come true! And now Storey gives knitters the perfect excuse to indulge their guilty pleasure for high-end, luxury, exotic, and natural yarns--these projects require only one skein! Yarn takes center stage in the third book of Storey's enormously successful One-Skein Series--these unique and irresistible yarns will make crafters eager to dive in. 272 pages, softcover, Workman Publishing
